Re: Just Wondering.....
I do not blame anyone on the Admin. Team for anything...I appreciate all the hard work and a place where we can dare to be different...If someone oversteps their bounds it looks bad on them not on Admin. (well that is just my thoughts)

Re: Just Wondering.....
I appreciate admin. I used to moderate a board a number of years back. Not a job I want.

Re: Just Wondering.....
Lady Skinner, there is defintely an unfortunate double standard I've seen here.
Generally speaking...
If a conservative says something that liberals here consider to be offensive or rude, we hear the typical "Well, there goes one of those rude, mean-spirited conservatives again. You know how they are."... etc, etc.
But if a liberal says something considered offensive or rude to [or about] conservatives, there's the usual chorus of "Well, you have to understand, he/she's been hurt by conservatives before"...or... "Well, he/she's been mistreated at the church they came out of, so we should just let him/her vent a little, and try to be compassionate".
It's a blatant double standard, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who's noticed it.

I am not so sure about that.
The greatest offensive insult on this board (or anywhere for that matter) is to eternally judge a fellow Christian unto damnation. It happens on this board and I am not so sure it is ever the "liberals" doing it - at least not generally.
Thankfully I, as a moderate, can point this out without being in great danger.... LOL!

Re: Just Wondering.....
Stephen, for some reason many (most?) liberals on AFF don't like to call call themselves liberals. Maybe you've noticed, they prefer to call themselves themselves moderates.

Funny!  I admit to baiting. 
I am a con in lifestyle, ultra con in family/marriage, and a liberal in my love for the brethren (including the non Oneness Pentecostal ones)!
You tell me. Doeth that not a moderate make?
